Langely AFB

Alright, since I didn't get any feedback regarding Buckley AFB, I wonder if anyone know's much about the area around Langley. Buckley or Langley will be our next home. If anyone knows much about either area I would appreciate the response. Desirable areas to live, good schools etc..?

That was my dads last base before retiring and I went to school there. My folks still live out there. York county schools are the best in the area. Also the best area to buy a house(If you will be buying a house) is York County. Williamsburg is also a good area but a little bit of a drive from the base. Langley has on base, base housing and off base, base housing. The on base housing goes to Hampton public schools, not the best. Off base, base housing go to York county schools. There is an elementary school in the housing area, I don't know what middle school they go to, but the high school is Tabb high(at least it was in 2005, double check me for more up to date info).

It is a nice area, lots to do, lots of sites to see especially for the history lovers, also great food! Williamsburg is about 30 minutes drive away, VA beach is about 1 hour away(depends on traffic). DC is about 2-3 hours away(again depends on traffic).

The area is beautiful, lots of improvements being made. The only negative IMO is it is getting more congested with people. It is still a great area to live just more people there than there was a few years ago.

The area is very military friendly. Because there are so many down there.

If you have any questions let me know. If I don't know I can always ask my folks. My dad is a civilian on the base now.

I agree, lots to do. However, at first I was only hearing about things after they happened. So I signed up for emails from the virginia tourist website. I also agree traffic is crazy. The interstate gets backed up at strange times and sometimes for no reason.

I recently left Buckley AFB and I hated it while I was there and now that I am gone I definitely miss it. Very family oriented 15 mins from downtown Denver and lots to do. But I'm from VA never been to Langley AFB but VA has a lot to offer as well
